In this paper, we have studied the impact of utilizing the customer knowledge on the innovation and new products’ performance in Sama Samaneh Software Co. Theoretical foundations and similar researches’ literature was reviewed to design a research model. Three types of customer engagement are identified (customer as the information source, customer as the innovative colleague, and customer as innovative) and their correlation with other variables are proposed as the main hypotheses. Ninety Sama Samaneh holding employees and managers were randomly chosen for the descriptive survey method. A questionnaire consisting of seven-level Likert scale closed questions was designed to measure the main variables. Validity and reliability of the questionnaire was measured as very good, and the data was analyzed using SPSS and PLS software. The results show that the proposed model can predict the performance of new products in 80% of the cases. They also show that the nature of customer’s knowledge impacts their type of engagement in developing new products, and the performance of new product development relies on customer’s engagement type.

Global competition and rapid changes in demand and the need for agile supplies have increased the importance of knowledge management as a strategic issue and a source of competitive advantage in supply chains. Choosing a knowledge management strategy in supply chains is important, because if the right strategy is not adopted with the supply chain, the knowledge management success probability in the supply chain will decrease. In the first step of the present study, the variables affecting the knowledge management strategy in the supply chain are identified and a model for strategy selection is proposed. In this model, supply chain strategy, cultural factors, distribution network structure, knowledge-intensive areas, knowledge creation and dissemination processes, human resources approach and information technology maturity of the supply chain are examined, respectively, and the relationship of each one with system-oriented and human-oriented KM strategies is specified. In order to validate the model, the opinions of experts in the field of knowledge management are used. In the next step, in order to model the effect of factors on strategy selection, a fuzzy inference system is designed using the MATLAB software. Iran Khodro company's is selected as a case study and the factors affecting the knowledge management strategy in this company's supply chain are examined, based on the opinions of chain managers and using the proposed model and system. The results show that the appropriate strategy for this chain is a system-oriented strategy, and finally the supply chain knowledge management strategies based on the selected strategy are presented to the company under study. The proposed system in this study can be used to select the knowledge management strategy in any supply chain.

In today's turbulent business environment, organizations have to make changes in their structure such as outsourcing. This change that is a requirement to provide for the needs of that organization and for competitive advantage can be considered as a new trouble for that organization as well. Because of such changes, an organization may lose the worker's (employee) knowledge that is the most important element of the competitive advantage. Thus, the organizations are required to use the most effective knowledge management strategy that is proposed according to the analysis of the key aspects of those organizations. This study examines Sazeh Gostar, the most important suppliers of spare parts for Saipa Automobile Company. At first, the two coding and personalization strategies were applied provided that they were reviewed in the literature. The influential factors were then classified according to McKenzie 7S model. Then, the data were obtained using snowball and targeted sampling from interviews with 9 experts, and through reviewing the company documents. Current status of the company was identified using Theme Analysis. Finally, comparing the influential factors on the company's knowledge management strategy, the appropriate coding strategy was selected.

Before implementing knowledge management in organization the most important issue is to select an adequate strategy which its absence results to failure of KM programs. Due to the importance of adequate strategy selection on KM effectiveness, little research has been done considering all organizational factors. Current research aims to identify all organizational factors related to KM strategy selection in three industrial strategic organizations. Methodology for this research is applied in purpose and descriptive in data gathering. Current study carried out by the help of a questionnaire tool distributed to 34 managers and KM experts in aforementioned organizations. To analyze data and test hypotheses the authors have used Chi-square method through windows SPSS.20 software. Results clearly show that there are meaningful relationships between all main variables of research (organizational strategy, organizational culture, leadership style, human resources strategy, and IT maturity level) by adequate selection of strategy; while there are not meaningful relationships among three sub-variables of cultural super-imposable, isolationist leadership style and secondary human resource strategy. Therefore, by omitting them from conceptual model of research, the model of factors affecting the selection of adequate knowledge management strategy is proposed.

Execution Quotient (XQ) is a measurement tool for your organization’s health. The implementation of organizational strategies and the achievement of organizational goals are a function of XQ. Without XQ, one cannot expect acceptable performance. Alignment consisting of coordination, fitness and coherence between different levels of strategies, is one of the key factors for successful implementation of organizational level strategies. Nowadays, holding companies formulate appropriate parenting strategies to manage their affiliated firms, but in order to implement these strategies at organizational level, they need to choose and implement business and functional level strategies in light of parenting strategies alignment. This
research intends to discover the degrees of alignment between parenting strategy and knowledge management (KM) strategy in the Iranian holding companies and to reach a model for its effects on XQ. In this descriptive and applied study, an appropriate model was developed based on the literature review. To measure XQ and alignment between parenting and knowledge management strategies, a sample of 30 parent state companies were selected to complete the questionnaires. The findings illustrate that XQ is influenced by strategic alignment and this effect follows an S-shaped curve.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop appropriate mechanisms to enhance XQ through aligning strategies at different levels in the holding companies.

To evaluate and select appropriate knowledge management strategy, a lot of organizational factors should be considered. Processes of knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, knowledge retention, and knowledge acquisition are involved in the selection of appropriate strategies. In this study, a methodology is offered to develop a knowledge management strategy. With regard to the infrastructure and processes of knowledge management bottlenecks of spiral knowledge processes are identified. Accordingly, strategic solutions are formulated for organizations. A review of the theoretical foundations of previous studies and factors affecting organizational knowledge management strategies have been explored from frameworks and administrative procedures. In this methodology, factors which influences on knowledge management strategy are as follows: organizational structure, corporate culture, information technology, human resource strategies and processes of knowledge sharing, knowledge capture, knowledge acquisition, and knowledge creation. In this study, the effect of mutual impact of organizational structure, IT and human resource management strategies on knowledge management strategy with the approach in knowledge spiral of the organization is emphasized. The proposed methodology was confirmed with a survey of 36 organizations and academic experts. At the end, the methodology was implemented to 2 different organizations and the results were analyzed.

The knowledge for organizations is of strategic assets, hence, the scholars of management science know the knowledge as sustainable advantage enabler; so, to maintain this advantage for future, the organizations should enhance its readiness to act against possible situations and to prescribe appropriate strategy of knowledge management. The purpose of the study is to identifying the affective factors on KMS and the possible scenarios facing the organization, suggesting required reflections for probable futures, and proposing suitable KMS for them. In this research, scenario-planning approach by ScenarioWizard software used to forecast the possible futures, and the Raja Company selected as case study. The study is practical in terms of objective and using surveying method, which implemented at explorative level. Using Balanced Cross-Impact Analysis, 8 strong scenarios and 81 weak ones gained, which 3 ones selected as optimistic, pessimistic and most probable scenarios, and by interviewing of a 5-member group, they proposed suitable actions and arrangements, and compatible KMS's were selected for them. As a result, the dynamic strategy of KM with more focus on human-oriented strategy were suggested for optimistic scenario, and for two other scenarios, the dynamic strategy of KM with more respect to system-oriented strategy were selected.

To encounter with Knowledge Management, the organizations should select appropriate knowledge strategy and knowledge management strategy. There are different methods for developing these strategies. In this study a System Dynamics model developed to select and integrate both strategies. In the proposed model organizational factors such as business strategy, structure, culture, human resource and IT infrastructure have been considered. On the other hand, from the dynamic approach perspective, the knowledge creation processes and the level of explicit or tacit knowledge have direct impact on selected strategies. In this paper all the stock variable and their initial value have been identified then the flow variable and theier increasing/decreasing rate have been determined and casual loops and stock and flow diagrams was proposed. At last after simulating and testing the dynamic model, different scenarios and policies have been presented for the case study. The results indicate improvement in both KM strategy and knowledge strategy.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effects of infrastructure and strategy of knowledge management on acquisition of core competencies through knowledge management process in ‘Iran Khodro Company’. Research method was descriptive-correlation. Statistical population encompassed 400 members of supervisors، middle managers، and senior managers in Iran’s IKCO. The opinions of 198 members were used as a selective sample identified by stratified sampling method. Primary data collected by questionnaire. Then، Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to measure the relationship among elements of knowledge management and core competencies. Findings indicate that knowledge management strategy is directly related to core competencies and there is no significant relationship between knowledge management infrastructure and core competencies. Nevertheless، knowledge management process as mediator variable affect the relationship between strategy and infrastructure of KM and core competencies indirectly.

Selecting an appropriate knowledge management strategy ensures that knowledge management system will be implemented successfully. To consider organizational factors and the dynamic nature of knowledge in organization, there is a need to choose a dynamic knowledge management strategy. This study tries to select a knowledge management strategy in an industrial lab by focusing on dynamic approach regard to the creation of knowledge management strategy. To this end, the most important factors that affect the creation of knowledge management strategy extracted from related works. Factors include organizational culture; business strategy; organizational structure; organizational knowledge level; human resources strategy; and maturity of information technology system. By analyzing organizational culture, business strategy and organizational structure; bounds of the codification and personalization knowledge management strategy are determined. Then, by measuring the level of Knowledge Creation processes, according to Nonaka’s model in the lab and evaluating current human resources strategy and information technology, the final strategy is selected in order to balance organization’s tacit and explicit knowledge. Thus, the selected strategy is a dynamic knowledge management strategy. Results show that personalization strategy considered as main and codification strategy considered as complimentary strategy in the lab respectively.

Universities are traditionally considered as knowledge base organizations، but in many universities، knowledge management (KM) processes has not been officially designed and implemented yet. Therefore، a key question is that the extent to which the KM strategies improve KM processes in universities. In this paper، a model for understanding the influence of KM strategies on knowledge acquisition، creation and sharing in universities is presented. A questionnaire was designed for collecting quantitative data. The statistical population was all faculty members of engineering departments in Iranian governmental universities. The relationships between the variables was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling. The results showed that human oriented strategies influenced KM processes. Knowledge sharing mediated the relationship between human oriented strategy and knowledge creation. In addition، it was found that improving informal relationship and interaction between faculty members could improve the KM processes in universities.

Knowledge Management (KM) is one of the growing apprehension in existing business in the new age of the complex and quickly changing business environment, and it has been realized that knowledge is the organization's critical asset and latent strategic resource that gives a basis for competitive advantage. At this situation, banks require to use knowledge and it prone to implementation related applications of knowledge management. One of the most important issues to implementation of knowledge management is how to select appropriate KM strategy. It is a kind of multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problem required to consider a large number of complex factors. To determine the knowledge management strategy, there are many influencing factors. The purpose of this paper is to ranking the appropriate KM strategy with TOPSIS and VIKOR, and prioritization the effective important factors for evaluating KM strategies for reducing the cost and time. Additionally, an empirical study is presented to illustrate the application of the proposed method.

In contemporary organizations Knowledge is the main competitive advantage. Knowledge is considered as a powerful means developing and changing continuously. So, controlling and managing of knowlede requires special skills which differ from one organization to another according to its nature. Myriad researchers examined the Critical Succsess Factors (CSFs) in Implementation of Knowledge Management System (KMS). In this particular study, we tried to introduce a comprehensive model identifying CSFs in Implementation of KMS for universities regarding those studies. To fulfill the aforementioned target, the main CSFs for implementing KMS in the universities were primarily identified from existing litratures. Secondly, for each CSF some Indexes were defined. Then Exploratory Factor Analysis was applied to obtain the main dimensions and key factors by testing the indexes in the universities located in Tehran. Finally, these dimensions and key factors were ranked by Fridman Test. The final explored model can be employed as an effective and efficient guide and blueprint for measuring the feasibility of implementation of Knowledge Management for Iranian universities and educational and research institutions.
